Synopsis

I am Ellie Belly. Everyone is MAD at me. The turtles at The Live Turtle & Tortoise Museum are going to lose their home! How do I know? Because a little turtle told me. REALLY! I need to help the turtles! But my best friend Cammy is not talking to me. And my big sister Gabby wants me to stop harassing her. What am I going to do?

Eliza Teoh, a Singapore Press Holdings scholar, is a former journalist and sub-editor with "The Straits Times." "Ellie Belly" is based on her own cheeky, rambunctious and irrepressible seven-year-old daughter named Ellie. In real life, Eliza also has an 11-year-old daughter named Gabby and a rabbit adopted from the SPCA named Taffy. Although she likes to think so, the real-life Ellie cannot talk to animals.
